Role of Media in Anna Hazare's Movement and Its Impact on Society
type: item
description: In today’s world, media occupies an important place in society. People get to know what is happening around the world and accordingly formulate their opinions. One can say that media is the voice of the people. There are many functions of the media — it persuades, provides information, entertains, and keeps an eye on the work of the government. Man is surrounded by its presence, whether in the form of print, electronic, or internet media. Therefore, it also has an impact on its users depending on how they use it. Many studies have pointed out that media has a lot of negative impacts on society. It has been criticized for playing a negative role in the lives of people. However, this paper argues that although media can have negative effects on its viewers, it still plays an important role in people’s lives. It is one of the vital tools in the hands of the common man, and we cannot ignore the positive aspects of its presence.

FIRST PILLAR vs FOURTH PILLAR A study of press coverage of Delhi Legislative Assembly
type: item
description: US President Thomas Jefferson once said “If I am asked to choose between ‘a Government without a press’ and ‘a press without a government’ I will not hesitate a moment to choose the later. In fact one cannot think of a situation where there is no press. Though Legislature, Judiciary and Executive are the three constitutionally sanctioned institutions of democracy which are other wise called the pillars of democracy press continues to be the fourth pillar even if it does not have the constitutional sanction.

Thirsty Regions Engineer Magma in the Shape of Terrorism
type: item
description: Violence and conflict caused by water shortages may threaten states’ political and social stability, according to the Parliamentary Assembly’s Environment Committee. At its meeting on 25 February 2011, the committee noted the close links between water and security, which have made water “a military and political tool and a new weapon for terrorists.” The committee also discussed how climate change has worsened the problem of malnutrition in the world’s driest regions. It called on European governments to recognize access to water as a fundamental human right and to apply — and, if necessary, revise — the rules of international water law. The systems for the joint management of trans-frontier rivers and aquifers should be reviewed, the committee declared. Transparency and the flow of information between all stakeholders should also be improved. Scientists and military experts believe that as the world warms, water — whether too little or too much of it — is going to be the major problem for the United States. They argue that it will be both a domestic problem, as states clash over control of rivers, and a national security problem, as water shortages and floods worsen conflicts and terrorism elsewhere in the world.

Press Coverage on Human Rights Issues: A study Two Hindi Dailies of Uttarakhand
type: item
description: The history of mankind has been closely linked to the struggle of people against injustice, exploitation, and discrimination. The assertion of human rights is one of the most significant manifestations of this struggle. Human rights have acquired special importance in the changing global context, particularly in the post–World War II democratic era. The post-war period has witnessed the rapid development of a human rights culture. The General Assembly of the United Nations unanimously adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on December 10, 1948. The domain of human rights has continued to expand in India. Many laws, institutions, and organizations have been established to ensure citizens a better standard of human rights. The Protection of Human Rights Act was passed by the Indian Parliament in 1993 with the objective of safeguarding the fundamental rights of Indian citizens. It is in this context that the present study seeks to assess the role of newspapers in the protection and promotion of human rights.

Community Communication for Participative Development: Experiments and Experiences in South Asia.
type: item
description: Millions of people in developing countries, particularly in rural areas, are deprived of a wide range of information and knowledge owing to the lack of access to information and communication technologies, as well as limited participation in information generation and dissemination—factors that could have improved their livelihoods and development patterns. In the prevailing socio-cultural and geographical context of rural and remote communities, community communications or community media, especially in its most popular and viable form—community radio—has been found to be a more effective and inclusive medium for providing equitable access to information and knowledge among the masses. Empirical evidence has shown that community communication and media foster grassroots-level participation and the horizontal circulation of ideas among deprived rural communities. These processes are essential preconditions for the democratization of communication and the redistribution of power. This paper attempts to analyze the contribution of the community movement toward conscientization and the development of marginalized masses in various parts of South Asia in general, and India in particular. It will examine various experiments and experiences in community radio broadcasting across different countries in South and Southeast Asia and propose pragmatic policy suggestions for ensuring the sustainability of rural community radio initiatives, particularly in India. A host of literature and empirical studies on the subject will be referred to during the analysis.

Social Media: Many Too Many Form of Message Transmission an Analysis (Article)
type: item
description: Social media play a very important role in national development. National development involves changes or advancement in a nation aimed at improving the political, economic and social lives of the people. The real influence of the social media in national development is dependent upon the penetration of internet and on computer literacy. The traditional media in dictatorships for example are not going to present the real picture because of the pressure from the Government and society. On the other hand big media houses are also called elite media in which news and views of the common person is absent. Therefore social media can bridge this gap by providing a platform for common person where everyone can become a journalist or a watchdog of the society. This is just reverse to the concept of different early models of communication in which the communication was from one source (media) to many. Social media has given a new concept of communication in which many source of information are multiplied by many. This is really a recent phenomenon in which many persons are not only transmitting the message to many but at the same time they are also the receiver of the message. Today we are witnessing that Social media are strengthening the nation in several ways like: social media has mobilized the masses against corruption and gender discrimination. Different departments of the Government have also recognized the positive role of the social networking websites and with the help of the social media they are involving the common man in developmental programmes. Delhi Traffic Police and Varanasi Police are among those which are using the social media like: Facebook just to connect with the common man. These are only a few examples where social media are playing a positive role and becoming a tool of participatory communication and in this way it is strengthening the democracy of the country. On the other hand there are a few concerns about the role of social media like: commer…

Mass Media Exposure and Awareness About Family Planning and Reproductive Health Among Child Bearing Women in Silchartown of Assam
type: item
description: India was the first sovereign nation to have implemented family planning programme way back in 1952 but paradoxically even with the expansion and reach of mass media, India is the second most populous country in the world today. The success story of any developing country is based on the overall development of its women folk. Their overall growth not only uplifts a particular woman but influences the overall development of her family as a whole. These virtues, ideas and thoughts still remain in its theoretical phase to the women of India. Time and again an opposite picture has been revealed of our women folk. Illiteracy, poverty, malnutrition, health hazards, male dominance and customs have grasped the root level of the mindset of majority of Indian women folk. Educational programmes through mass media pertaining to reproductive health can bring in the much required changes to curb the menaces prevailing in our society in this regard. Mass Media today has widened the mental horizon of the people by providing sound knowledge about reproductive health care especially family planning, female infanticide, female foeticide, family size, antenatal care, postnatal care etc. In fact, it has the ability to bring positive changes for health consciousness and encouraging an adoption of healthful lifestyles among the people. Thus, the proposed study is aimed to assess the role of mass media exposure of women in urban areas in generating the awareness about family planning and reproductive health in Silchar town of Assam.

Mass Media Education an Agent and Reactorto Globalization
type: item
description: With reference to Mass Media, globalization is the flow of technology, economy, knowledge, people, values, and ideas across borders and these are changing very fast. Globalization affects each country in a different way due to a nation’s individual history, traditions, culture and priorities. Internationalization of higher education is one of the ways a country responds to the impact of globalization yet, at the same time, respects the individuality of the nation. The concept of internationalization differs dialectically from that of globalization because it refers to the relationship between nation-states, which promotes recognition of and respect for their own differences and traditions. By contrast, the phenomenon of globalization does not tend to respect differences and borders, thus undermining the bases of the very same nation-states, and leading to homogenization. In this sense, internationalization can be understood as complementary or compensatory to globalizing tendencies, given that it allows for a resistance to the latter’s denationalizing and homogenizing effects. In context of higher education, the process of integrating an international/intercultural dimension into the teaching, research and service functions of the institution. Any systematic, sustained efforts aimed at making higher education responsive to the requirements and challenges related to the globalization of societies, economy and labor markets. Internationalization of Mass Media not merely an aim itself, but an important resource in the development of finer channel systems towards: 1) a system in line with international standards; and, 2) one open and responsive to its global environment. Internationalization is seen as one of the ways a country responds to the impact of globalization, yet at the same time respects the individuality of the nation (Qiang, 2003).

Since 2006, “Bigg Boss” has had a successful run on Indian television; the series focuses on celebrity contestants. Bigg Boss has been extremely controversial for the sexualized and vulgarized representation of women and the use of abusive language.

Embracing Networked Journalism Between Shallowness And Depth
type: item
description: It is widely acknowledged that today’s news media are changing radically. New forms of what is coming to be known as ‘networked journalism’ are increasingly visible. This new form of networked journalism based on new media is changing the core of news production and consumption, challenging the business models of the past and the efforts of traditional journalism organizations to control the news. In today's interactive digital information environment, journalists lose the power to define what makes and shapes the news. Media outlets now maneuver through a space characterised by continuous information flows, and share communication paths with new information providers in an online, always-on environment. This article sketches this dynamic sphere and introduces the paradigm of 'network journalism'. Structured around digital networks, the sphere of network journalism unravels evolving patterns of information production. The task for journalistic organisations now is to figure out how to include the many traditional and alternative information nodes in their everyday work. The loss of control over a formerly strictly regulated information-exchange sphere is viewed here as an opportunity for journalism to review its practices. However, as journalists take on new roles and more voices are heard, there is a growing need to understand the implications of the new forms of boundary crossing that are being encouraged by this new form of journalism. Emerging forms of journalism may provide a foundation for public dialogue that enables stories about distant others to be told and better understood. The consequence may be that there will be new opportunities for enhanced sharing of viewpoints. Although convergent media platforms create opportunities for new exchanges, there are reasons to question whether the potential will be met?

Agenda Setting Role of the Press on Telangana Issue
type: item
description: The demand for a separate Telengana state is one of the most contentious as well as politically volatile issues the nation is facing ever since Independence. The people belonging to the region have been agitating from time to time and political leaders under different banner keeping the issue burning and gaining political mileage. However, the people of the region have been subjected to suffering because of these developments. They are neither getting a separate state nor getting their due share within the undivided state. The plight of the people of Telengana goes back to pre-Independence days. Under the Nizam’ s rule majority of the people were oppressed a lot. Keeping in view of the controversy and importance of the issue, the authors made an attempt to assess the news media’s agenda, if any, on the contentious Telangana issue. For the purpose of the study two English dailies: the Deccan Chronicle and the Times of India were purposively chosen. The former is regional English daily largely confined to Andhra Pradesh and the latter is the largest circulated English daily in the country. The contents of the newspapers under study were quantitatively measured and then subjected to framing analysis in order to assess their agenda on the issue.

Portrayal of Women in Satyajit Ray’s Films
type: item
description: The present study attempts to explore the transition of traditional women characters towards modernity or how modern they are in Satyajit Ray’s films or are they oscillating between the tradition and modern. Many scholars have found Nehruvian aspirations and visions for a modern India in Satyajit Ray’s early films made up to 1964. Further both these men have one thing in common, the aspirations for fusion of east and west .So, the researcher has chosen APORAJITO and CHARULATA to examine Satyajit Ray’s vision of transition of 19th century women from tradition to modernity

Internet: The Wind of Change in Research Arena
type: item
description: Internet and Research cannot be discussed in isolation in this ‘The Information Age’, where internet is considered as the backbone of ‘The Information Superhighway’. New media, particularly internet plays a profound role and its impact towards Research is tremendous. However, the irony is that, the bombardment of unauthenticated information on internet has given an unconstructive research to the neophyte Research Scholars. The interpersonal communication theorist like Baxter argues that, “No relationship exists unless the parties sacrifice some individual autonomy however, too much connection paradoxically destroys the relationship because individual’s identities become lost” (Baxter and Montgomery, 1988). The theory implies that the unbridled dependency on internet has destroyed the quality relation between the Researcher-Guide and the Researcher-Researcher, also the space of academic interaction seems to be diminishing. Is the internet proving to be creating a better research environment or hampering the quality of research? Internet critics and writers like Slevin(2000), Terry (2008), Jan Nederveen (2009), have come up with books on internet, but a collection of their criticism, reviews or internet biographies which has no justification to this field. In order to justify these discourses, this study looks into the in-depth analysis to the data drawn from the primary and secondary sources, and carried out through exploratory research under triangulation method. Perhaps, to what extend and how far the new technologies and tools of New media, particularly the internet will take us has no guaranteed but so far the internet is sweeping the world over with great impact.

type: item
description: Cinema is a form of expression which attracts a good amount of masses as a punter. It is a medium that educates, enlighten, entertain and sometimes act as a watch dog to the society. ‘Film is not only a piece of art but also a tool of social reform as it expresses the feelings of humans and their ideas of contemporary society.

Marketing and Communication Strategies for Customer Retention by leading Hindi News papers“A study of DainikJagran and DainikBhaskar
type: item
description: India is a mixed market in terms of media consumers. Where on one hand, Indian consumer is adapting to the fast changes in technology like the audience of the West, the slow percolation of digital technologies owing to lack of infrastructure can be attributed as the prime reason why print is still going strong in India. There is a larger section of the audience still unreached by the digital media. According to the current Price Waterhouse Coopers Media & Entertainment Report, the print industry in India has a circulation of 90 million second only to China (130 million) and the newspaper industry is expected to have a compounded annual growth rate of 10.1% by 2015 while the projected growth of Indian print media is INR 282 billion in 2015.

Attitude towards Promotions of Multiculturalism in Indian Society Perspectives of Hindi and Tamil Movies among Youth
type: item
description: Movies are considered to be one of the most popular medium of mass communication in India (Raina131- 141Gargan11-12), it is an effective tool of communication. India is a big country having more than a hundred and twenty crore population and every state has its own language and culture. Sometimes, it (the variety of different cultures and languages) seems to be dangerous for our unity. But, the promotion of multiculturalism solves this problem. Cinema can play an effective role for promoting multiculturalism in Indian society. Hindi is the mass language of northern parts of India and so Hindi films are very famous in north. Similarly, Tamil is the base language of all south Indian languages. So, Tamil films are very famous and popular in south. The study focuses on how far the people are aware of the reimbursement and negative aspects of multiculturalism in society. How much Indian films are effective for the promotion of multiculturalism?

Can New Media be a better tool for Governance?
type: item
description: Given the unique characteristics of the New Media, the technology offers real opportunities for democratization and political transformation, especially in societies where the basic rights of freedom of expression and the press are constricted by state control. This paper seeks to challenge this main assumption by examining the impact of the Internet along with the politics surrounding its use in Asia, with specific attention to the cases of China and Singapore. This paper postulates that in the cases of certain authoritarian regimes such as China and Singapore, not only has the presence and use of the Internet failed to spawn strong opposition movements, but authorities in these states have cleverly entered the domain of online expression and have utilized the technology to improve governance and control of these societies.

type: item
description: Iran has drawn the global attention due to its controversial nuclear program. A onetime friend of United States of America, Iran has become its enemy. USA and Europe have declared sanctions against Iran. Iran’s nuclear program has drawn the world’s attention to this region. Iran is strategically important for India in the context of its relationships with China and Pakistan. There is dearth of research studies pertaining to Iran and media. Few studies have examined Iran and US relationship and its framing and portrayal in American media. There are absolutely no studies about treatment of Iran in Indian media in general and newspapers in particular. Iran is very important country to India and the government of India has good diplomatic relationships with Iran because of heavy oil imports.

The study helps in creating research material and scholarship in the framing of Iran by Indian press.
